I'm interested in all kinds of your products, but this time I would like to order some fireworks and mosquito coil incense. Please quote us C.I.F., Rangoon.

All right. Here are our F.O.B. price lists. All the prices are subject to our final confirmation.

好吧!这是我们的FOB价目表.所有的价格都以我方最后确认为准.

亚历山大:

Your price is reasonable but I wonder if you would give us a discount. You know for the products like yours we usually get 2% or 3% discount from European suppliers.

你方的价格很合理.但我想知道你们能否给一个折扣?像这样的商品.我们通常从欧洲供货商那里得到百分之二到百分之三的折扣.

布鲁斯:

We usually offer on a net basis only. Many of our clients have been doing very well on this quoted price.

Discounts will more or less encourage us to make every effort to push sales of your products.

Well, as this is the first deal between us, we agree to give you an one-percent discount as a special encouragement.

由于这是我们的第一次交易.我们同意作为特殊照顾给予你们百分之一的折扣.

亚历山大:

1%? That's too low a rate. Could you see your way to increase it to 2%?

百分之一?那太少了.能不能想办法增加到百分之二?

布鲁斯:

I'm afraid we have really made a great concession, and could not go any further.

恐怕不行了.我们确实已做出了很大让步.无法再增加了.
